given that over last weekend and this week's a much more peaceful week, i finally had some own space and air to breathe. after some random talks with the people i've met up, i finally concluded that i really don't know what i want. my point of view of work, life, attitude, dating, relationship, marriage has all changed. It's like, you finally see things differently in a more realistic way. forget what-ifs and throw away maybe-s. i used to think that if i think and wish hard enough, i might just get what i want. i used to think be so innocent and assume that if you're focused enough, things will just work out right.
but i finally figured out that i'm just one lost soul. i don't know what i'm going after. i guess this is what they call a crisis right? i can't believe that i'm becoming so skeptical and cynical with life in general. this is definitely bad.
on another note. yesterday's lab was outfield to Bukit Timah nature reserve! It's really fun and this time, instead of trekking in torrential rain, the weather was perfect and everyone was having such a swell time. despite the fun, i'm more than sure that i don't belong to the Biology concentration. give me back my lab coat and pipettes anytime.
this is the plant we're working with. Clidemia hirta. found along trails of forests and they are hairy hairy. hehe
First, you trek through the forest
then you enjoy the flora of the forest and see things like Lingzhi and an interesting christmas tree.
then you spot something! stretch out your hand and touch it. if it's hairy, it's the plant!
and then you do the necessary measurements.
there you have it! that was lab yesterday. and then there's the horrid part of writing the report.
backtrack a little more, was dinner date with Karen (: we did so much shopping in vivo and i'm so glad i exercised my self control when i was at Mango and topshop. bought nothing!! damn happy. instead, i think i made Karen spend more money there by picking up the clothes i think looks sweet. oops.
Dinner was at sushi tei..Cha soba. Hotate and Avocardo Dragon roll. yummy!
we over ordered and wanted to puke after dinner. too bad my camera was out of batt or i would have snapped more photos of the delicacies
ok..i look like i haven't slept for days and my smile looks frozen and stiff. sigh.
whee! done! quite looking forward to this weekend...for no particular reason. maybe i just need a longer break.
it's amazing i haven't felt the absence of
you yet.

ok, so today was the most dreaded day of the week. every wednesdays is an agony to go through because there's expt molecular lecture to go through from 10-12pm and then straight after is the lab from 12-6pm. back to back with no breaks, no time to pee, no time to eat. of course, i HATE lab. i absolutely abhor it. jeanne will know how much i've whined and whined and can keep on whining about lab work. because, after lab, it's lab report writing every week. and now that we have a very sadistic TA who gives us EXTRA SUPPLEMENTARY questions to answer ( not like we don't have enough at hand already), we're bound to hit more difficult times ahead of our lives.
but! there's always a but behind..
lab was FUN today! i know i know, i just said it's a drag but me and jeanne made an effort to go to lab early, chopped the whole bench and got very happening people to sit with us! we got goobi, jeremy, jeanne, ben, paul the man the occassional TA who comes to crack jokes. like " why are you running around with the running buffer?" no seriously, there IS A thing called running buffer and she WAS running around. so it made it sound pretty funny... ok get the joke? don't? then nvm.
we had laughs as well and pet name calling, which was...utterly disgusting i swear.
so yup! we finished lab an hour early, had fun with the gels and now, i'm home trying to clear some parts of the lab report out of the 1001 (ohmygod!) before my big day tmrrrr! whee! after 21 years, i'm finally gonna be 21 sooonnnnnn!
anyway, i'm terribly full to the brim after 1 foot long of tuna subway, ice lemon tea and white chip cookie. i feel like i'm ready to puke tuna. sheesh! or maybe i shall just go and have a nice little nap and heck the lab report.
